Was the Dark Souls II Lost Crowns DLC Already in the Game?

Junkie Monkeys: There’s been a lot of unused content footage and newly leaked information coming in for Dark Souls II and the upcoming The Lost Crowns DLC that has fans scratching their heads. The question that people are asking now is whether the upcoming Dark Souls 2 DLC was already in the game or not. There is evidence that we (and others) have dug up that’s sure to raise some eyebrows. SPOILER WARNING!

Seems more like a case of content that was cut because it couldn't make the release window, but instead of scraping it they decided to make dlc out of it. I mean with SotC, there was data on up to 24 colossi.

Well Dark Souls 2 is made up a lot of small areas I think it is good to say these are the levels. Forest of Fallen Giants/ Heidi's Tower- Sinners Rise Huntsmans Copse- Iron Keep Grave of Saints- Black Gulge Shaded Woods- Brightstone Cove Drangleic Castle- Dragon Shrine The all over the place end game locations

With a few optional areas along the way

Hopefully the DLC is as big as the trip to the Sinner or the ancient dragon, if it is just an area it better be larger than any other

Probably. Demons souls was a compete experience and showed they didn't need DlC. Dark Soul fell victim to the industry and said the same but put out dlc anyway with Hugh Hugh story details which was cut from the game. Wouldn't surprise me if they did the same here.

Luckily the creator of Demon's Souls is in control for Blood borne so you know it will be a complete experience with annual events like Demon's Souls had.

No it's not, the DLC has HUGE HUGE story details in it and the devs said they had cut it due to time constraints and felt like they didn't need to put it out and brought it up when they were doing the PC port. Demon's Souls is the most complete experience because it DOESN'T have any DLC.
